About this safari
Embark on an extraordinary 5-day luxury safari through Northern Tanzania’s most celebrated wildlife destinations. Handcrafted specifically for travelers seeking both high-end comfort and authentic wilderness experiences, this private journey brings you face-to-face with Africa’s most stunning landscapes, extraordinary biodiversity, and incredible wildlife concentrations. From the moment you arrive, you will travel in complete comfort aboard a customized 4x4 safari Land Cruiser equipped with a pop-up roof, guided by an expert local driver-guide who provides deep regional insights and ensures optimal wildlife spotting throughout your adventure.
Your journey begins across the vibrant alkaline waters of Lake Manyara National Park, famous for its massive seasonal flamingo flocks, elusive tree-climbing lions, and lush groundwater forest. From there, venture deep into the heart of the legendary Serengeti National Park, home to vast, sweeping golden savannas and the world-renowned Great Migration. Spend your days tracking the Big Five—lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and African buffaloes—before retiring to carefully selected luxury lodges and exclusive tented camps. Enjoy delicious fine dining, warm Tanzanian hospitality, and modern luxury amenities under a star-filled African sky.
Conclude your safari expedition with an unforgettable descent into the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera. Inside the crater rim, experience unmatched animal density in a single morning, from grazing herds of zebras and wildebeest to rare black rhinos roaming the open plains. Featuring seamless private airport transfers, curated luxury accommodations, personalized service, and guaranteed window seating for every guest, this high-end itinerary perfectly balances untamed African wilderness with top-tier comfort for an unforgettable East African getaway.

This is one of the most diverse of Tanzania’s national parks, a tiny (325km2) combination of Rift valley lake, dense woodlands and steep mountainside. Manyara is a birding paradise (more than 380 species), especially for waterfowl and migrants and the forests are one of the best places around to see leopards. Lions hunt on the grassy shores of the
lake. Most visitors tailor a visit to Manyara to fit in with a trip to one of the Big Three parks (Serengeti, Tarangire and Ngorongoro).
